Right! I'm trying to get the price down but running out of room! I queried "For marine grade finish to items 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 4.00 and 5.00 above due to coastal environment 1 item 1,312.20£ 1,312.20" Just seems a lot when we are no where near the cost. The response I got was.... "Our systems are aluminium framed. Item 7.00 reflects the cost involved with the aluminium frames being powder coated to a higher micron .i.e. marine grade, to withstand the harsher environment. We generally work to providing these options when a project is 5km from the sea, but from what I can see your property is nearer to 8km from the coast. I would still advise that you opt for marine grade finishes, and would advise that if you do not, you are aware of the potential implications of wear over time. " Is this REALLY an issue for me? Will the frames visibly degrade overtime?

£4 !!!! Mega money !!!!

Welcome ! Do you need some walk on glazing ? ?

Latest company state (my favourite as their products look stunning): The Uw values vary across our range so please see typical values below:Sieger Slim Sliding Door 1.4Schuco Casement Door 1.8Sieger Casement Windows 1.1Sieger Entrance Door 1.3 These are double glazed. Not sure the extra cost for triple glazed will justify the U value improvement. Down to 24k now - but will have to drop their front door suggestion as way to expensive....

I suspect . They will then say “triple glazed units for all bar the sliding doors “ . When the price is crap and “discounts” are offered I go looking elsewhere....

Yes new build Are you saying any sliding doors can’t be triple glazed ???

Another day; another quote. Overall almost the same total cost but it is interesting that previously "The Supplied and fitted cost for a 1 x 3 section SL20 Classic Minimal framed sliding door system with all panels sliding with multi point locking and all frames in a standard RAL colour all glazed units will be energy efficient glazing and a U-value of 1.3. The approximate size of the doors would be 5700 x 2450 the cost of this would be £16,261.00 plus vat supplied and fitted." 16K!!! From other company " 5700mm wide x 2450mm high -Three track Sieger Slim® sliding door system comprising of 2nr sliding and 1nr fixed panes (→,→,Fixed) 1 item 7,617.28£ 7,617.28£ Alternative Option - 5700mm wide x 2450mm high -Three track Sieger Slim® sliding door system comprising of 3nr sliding panes (→,↔,←) 1 item 8,119.93£ Alternative Option " 8K!!! Original company (with double glazed units) have now said for the same cost they will do triple. Anyway I've halved the price of 1 expensive unit already ?

Thanks. I am committed now to 100mm!. I've shuttered this amount away from my UFH - so that's the deal ?

Ready for you @Onoff ?

It’s ok ; watched video again - I guess that’s a “yes”

So 100mm wall depth does that allow for the waste ? ( if say was straight down through the floor )

Ouch ! I’m up to £1.02 . Its bizarre - acroprops , scaffold boards , bricks sell quick . Walk on glazing no one wants . I might wait a few decades and then take them to antiques road show ...

People use to see me coming round the corner a good 5 seconds before I did

Everything is 15mm for you ...

Helical stairs !!! ?

I think 100 people should piss in your new toilet . Baggsy first wee !

Mega help ( as expected) i knew the price was bonkers - just wanted to share it and see . Probably get the large sliding door done separately; and the front door ......

We should celebrate the big 100 - somehow .....

Double sided taped along vapour barrier join ; with single sided tape over edge 1 room done !

Will do i was worried when it pulls it would rip the foil on the celotex

First sheet down . Pushed it into the corners . Can see though when they pour the screed suddenly causing the plastic to slip and slide inwards .

Emergency question ! i assumed the vapour barrier would have a ‘ install this side facing up ‘ ( like roofing barrier ) . But it doesn’t - so it doesn’t matter ? Seems strange

Cut off excess foam - taped joints . Vapour barrier now

Lol No dpm ; just vapour barrier to go ontop
